Renowned director Timur Bekmambetov shared details of his new project at the Digital Bridge 2023 digital forum in Astana. This film, centered around artificial intelligence (AI), promises to revolutionize the cinematic world with innovative concepts, QazMonitor reports citing the press service of the Ministry of Digital Development.

Artificial intelligence is currently taking center stage in the world of filmmaking, and Timur Bekmambetov is fully engaged in this burgeoning topic. He revealed to journalists that his upcoming film delves into the narrative of artificial intelligence passing judgment on humanity. This intriguing concept invites profound contemplation about the future of mankind and the role of AI within it.

A noteworthy aspect of this project is the collaboration with experts from the Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation, and Aerospace Industry (MDDIAI) of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The MDDIAI has provided valuable insights into how the processes of jurisprudence and litigation intersect with the modern digital state.

This partnership will imbue the film with authentic information and a heightened sense of realism. In today's rapidly evolving landscape of AI development, governments seek to strike a balance between technological progress and security. With people increasingly interacting with AI, the need to educate both professionals and the general public becomes paramount.

In this vein, the MDDIAI, in cooperation with the Ministries of Education, Higher Education and Science, as well as leading IT universities, will embark on a mission to retrain teachers and inspire students to pursue careers in the IT sector.

Furthermore, the MDDIAI recognizes the importance of stimulating scientific research in the realm of AI, including prioritizing and attracting investments in AI developments and algorithms. This effort is expected to expand the AI market and bolster the export of IT services.

Bekmambetov also underlined his active utilization of cutting-edge tools when crafting character images and composing scripts for his projects. He firmly believes that artificial intelligence constitutes a formidable asset for contemporary filmmakers, greatly aiding in the screenwriting and artistic processes.
